Here’s your jumping exercise of the week – VIDEO Break

Winter is underway in most parts of the riding world, but that isn’t slowing riders down. The off-season is the perfect time to work on solidifying basics and prepare to kick butt and take names for the upcoming competition year. However, if winter weather has you confined to an indoor arena it can be tricky to come up with jumping exercises. Space is a limited commodity so you need to get creative. This fun bounce exercise uses straw bales positioned in a circle with a 10′-12′ diameter. The cool thing about this exercise is you can approach it from EVERY direction and bounces are a great way to strenghn your horse and improve its rhythm. So go ahead and give it a try this week…
